64 • Chassis and Blade Installation
• The Fiber Optic Extension System only works with the R4300 chassis, and with
R4200 chassis that are revision "E" or higher. The version can be determined from
the label on the side of the R4200 chassis.
• The Fiber Optic Extension System only works with "straight-through" fiber optic
cable. This means that if light is transmitted down the fiber on the right-hand side
of the connector then at the other end of the cable, the light should come out on
the left-hand side of the connector.
• The total attenuation through all the connections between the Transceiver and the
Fiber C/Port must be 3 dB or less, including the cable itself.
• This system connects PC blades at a maximum distance of 500 meters over a
pair of 62.5 micron multi-mode fibers.
